NT Ultrasound vs Bloodwork

Sasha

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know what the difference of what the Dr is looking for in the NT ultrasound vs the bloodwork?

Had the ultrasound done yesterday (I’m 12 weeks) but bloodwork won’t be back for two weeks.

Good news is that the ultrasound was completely normal!

Is it just looking for Down syndrome now? I’m guessing they couldn’t see that in the ultrasound?
